Stock Products vs Stock Items

The system uses a hierarchical structure to manage inventory efficiently:

Stock Product

This is the parent item that defines the unit of measurement and tracks costs.

Stock Items

These are defined quantities that the stock moves in and out, all related to the parent Stock Product.
